Description
Summary:Icepack version 1.3.4 is being released with CICE6.4.2. This is a minor release update from the Icepack1.3.3 release from December, 2022. This update includes several bug fixes including in snow physics, FSD lateral melt, and treatment of thin ice/snow enthalpy. It also includes improvements to the treatment of optional arguments in the public interfaces, capability for netcdf restart files, and other enhancements. Bug fixes Correct thin ice/snow treatment of enthalpy and other tracers. #454 . This changes answers in CICE (QC passes) but not Icepack Fix ice area inconsistency under convergence in single column mode #433 . This changes answers in standalone Icepack but not in CICE . Fix bug in snow sublimation in icepack_therm_vertical #428 . Fix bug in smicen and smliqn calculation in thermo_vertical #449 . This changes answers for snwgrain configurations . Update the FSD lateral heat flux computation and fix bug in the welding scheme. #424 #435 This changes answers for FSD configurations . Fix bug in history file output related to FSD. #421 . This does not change model results. Fix bug in start time for netCDF history output #426 . This does not change model results. Update hsn_new(1) computation in snow_redist. This does not change model results. Enhancements Update snow physics logic control #449 Refactor implementation of optional arguments for isotopes, snwgrain, therm1 and therm2 as well as some optional outputs in Icepack public interfaces #423 , #429 . Update FSD arguments, convert them to optional #440 . Clean up optional argument attributes and update optional argument documentation #443 . Add icepack_chkoptargflag function #423 , #434 Add support for netCDF restart files, update history and restart format control #427 Deprecate zsalinity #448 Remove ridging iteration log output #445 , #446 Check allocation of snow aging tables better #428 Clean up some intent statements, clean up public interface declarations #429 Shift a few left-over print statements to use the icepack warning infrastructure #424 ...
